VMware_vSphere_8.0_STIG_VM_InSpec_Runner.ps1 won't generate Checklist file #244

Open dmpastuf-rtx opened 1 month ago

dmpastuf-rtx commented 1 month ago

Describe the bug

the VM Inspect Powershell script won't currently generate the checklist file, and throws an error "Error: Flat --ip expects a value"; The json file appears to be properly generated and output and the powershell cli when running indicates pass/fail properly;

It appears $mgmtip and $mgmtmac are not being declared based on observing the differences between VMware_vSphere_8.0_STIG_VM_InSpec_Runner.ps1:149 and VMware_vSphere_8.0_STIG_ESXi_InSpec_Runner.ps1:156 (and similar for the 2nd try block)

Reproduction steps

  1. Set the environmental values per https://github.com/vmware/dod-compliance-and-automation/tree/master/vsphere/8.0/v2r1-stig/vsphere/inspec/vmware-vsphere-8.0-stig-baseline README.MD
  2. Modify /inspec/vm/inspec.yml input "allvms" to 'true'
  3. run VMware_vSphere_8.0_STIG_VM_InSpec_Runner.ps1 with the required fields declared (-vcenter, -reportPath, -inspecPath; attestationFile has no impact on bug)
  4. Enter UN\Password
  5. Observe output reports only are limited to JSON; checklist is not generated

Expected behavior

Checklist file is generated for Each VM

Additional context

This occurs with the following software versions: -PowerCLI 13.2.1 [currently latest though the min requirements mentions 13.3 which is presumably unreleased for GA yet] -Powershell Core 7.3.4 -vCenter/ESXi 8.0 U3 -Inspec 6.6.0 -SAF CLI 1.4.8

Addition of the following (or similar) appears to resolve this issue (at least for single NIC VMs); 

$mgmtip = (Get-VM -Name $name).Guest.IPAddress
$mgmtmac(Get-VM -Name $name).Guest.Nics.MacAddress

Once each before the following lines:

Seems like powered off VMs still throw an error with the above fix, and VMs with multiple IP addresses (or an IPv4 + IPv6) are not handled correctly
